LUCKY 15 SELECTIONS

KAFOO (Bath 4.15) sports blinkers for the first time and it should make all the difference in the 1m Classified Stakes. Ed Dunlop, who had a cracking juvenile maiden winner at Newmarket yesterday, saddles this gelded son of Dansili and the dogs were barking this one’s name at HQ. He did not show much in three runs last season but upped his game when runner-up at Kempton on th Polytrack last month and hopes are high that he can break his maiden at the fifth time of asking as he reverts to turf.

CLIFF (Beverley 5.15) was a beaten favourite at Doncaster in a similar 7f handicap that he contests today. Nigel Tinkler re-fitted cheekpieces and it seemed to galvanise the six-year-old, who went down fighting by half a length. Though he has risen 3lb in the weights since, Kieran Schofield’s 7lb claim means that the selection holds a decent chance of finally getting off the mark at the 20th attempt.

HERONS HEIR (Warwick 1.30) faces a relatively tough task on his chasing debut for Dan Skelton in a two-mile contest against some experienced rivals. Twice second on his last two starts over hurdles this son of Heron Island won over the smaller obstacles at Market Rasen in January and while he has plenty of weight today, should give a god account as e has reportedly schooled well.

DAYS OF HEAVEN (Kempton 2.45) is a triple 2m hurdles winner, which included a Grade 2 victory in the Dovecote Novices’ Hurdle at this track in February 2015. Nicky Henderson’s representative makes his chasing debut against five rivals over an extended 2m4½f this afternoon and while he has faced some tough assignments this winter in three runs, the six-year-old may relish this particular discipline.
